WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT?A Poem by Terry CollettA MAN'S VIEW ON WHAT WAS NOT LOVE.What's love got to do with it? He said, we eat and drink and go to bed and have sex and then lay back and smoke or talk or joke and then another poke. What's love got to do with it? He said, we get up and wash and have breakfast and go to work and get down to it or try to shirk, then have lunch and back again to work or shirk, talk or lie or agree to differ with the boss (big fool, total loss), then home on the bus or train avoiding the wind and rain. What's love got to do with it? He said, we get home have a bite to eat, watch TV or go online or drink booze or wine, then to bed and get down to it maybe once to twice, then lay back and joke or talk or smoke in silence, avoiding rows and maybe violence. What's love? Got to do With it? He said lying in bed, nothing, not one bit. © 2016 Terry Collett |
